PLUTO RETROGRADE IN CAPRICORN
Blog Post 25 April 2019
Pluto is the planet of transformation. Like Saturn, he is here to teach us some of our greatest life lessons and to transform us from being slaves to ourselves, our beliefs and our perspectives to becoming the Master of these things. He is a tough taskmaster and he will not give up until he has taught you what you chose to learn in this lifetime, and he also makes no excuses for how that teaching and learning may come about. In Greek Mythology, Pluto is the Ruler of the Underworld, and so he is in charge of all that we hide from the real world, all that we bury within ourselves and all that we deny about who we are and the way that we live. Therefore, when Pluto moves into Retrograde motion its time to explore your inner/underworld to see what you need to master.
During this Retrograde period from 24 April – 3 October 2019 you are being asked to look within to what controls you and has power over you. You will be made aware of all in your life that manipulates you, deceives you and is not healthy for you on any level, and you will be asked to let this all go. We limit our journeys in life when we don’t acknowledge or admit to ALL the parts we are made up of. It is wonderful to celebrate our successes and to be proud of who we are and what we accomplish in life, but we also need to acknowledge and make peace with the parts of ourselves that we are not so proud of or that do not allow us to feel successful, worthwhile and proud.
Remember that Pluto always gives us a few nudges before he acts, and during this Retrograde period, it is in your best interests to be very aware of what comes up within you or for you, and what presents itself to you as something you need to change and master within yourself. If you choose to ignore the nudges and awarenesses that are being brought to you, Pluto can and will rip the rug out from under your feet and turn your world upside down, and he makes no apologies for this. You will be warned, you will be made aware and it is up to you to acknowledge this and act upon it, if you wish your transformation to be one that is under your own control, rather than under the control of fateful Pluto. So be aware of what may be repeatedly coming up in your life and act on it.
So, what are you hiding within yourself that makes you feel like you are less than perfect? Perhaps it’s a negative opinion of yourself, or perhaps its an addiction that you just can’t shift, or maybe it’s a habit you have developed that you just can’t stop or a perspective on life that has a toxic and negative effect on you and your soul’s journey. Whatever it may be, and however ugly you may think it is, you have done nothing wrong and there is nothing wrong with you that cannot be changed. You are a soul on a journey and part of that journey is to discover the darker side of yourself so as your light can shine even more brightly.
Pluto Retrograde is basically a time of deep detoxification on every level. He focusses on the dark, intense, deep and often toxic part of you that you keep tucked away, ashamed that its there but too scared to let it go as it may be your crutch, your coping mechanism or simply all that you know. Your deepest fears can come to the surface under this Retrograde period so as they can be transformed and healed. When you take charge and stop the negative aspects of yourself from having control over who you are and how you live your life, you step into a position of power, and you master your life lessons. For instance, if you wish to drink alcohol you can, and if you wish to smoke or gamble you may also do so. But when such things become a need or the driving force for your day, you are a slave to them, and they will hold you back from all and every level of development and ascension you are here for, as well as your true happiness and peace. You become disempowered and enslaved to the very thing you perhaps thought was bringing you happiness or a much-needed escape from your daily reality.
During this Retrograde be fully aware of what you are feeling, what is coming up for you and what is also being presented to you by the outside world as well. The lessons of Pluto are hard, very hard, as so often they relate to aspects of ourselves that we wish to deny or that we feel we are powerless to change. But when you master his lessons, you will experience emotional and spiritual freedom that is unsurpassed. You are here to take charge of and master your life and all the lessons along the way. This is your task and you have chosen every step and every lesson so as you can evolve, ascend and be happy on the earth plane. So, face what you fear, stand in your light, and know that you’ve got this! Blessings xox
